Tipping in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Customary: 10%. Round up, or 10% at restaurants. Cash.

At restaurants

What is customary: Service is usually already on the bill

Worked example

On a BAM50.00 bill, 10% is BAM5.00, so you would hand over BAM55.00.

Tour guides

On a “free” walking tour, the tip is the fare: about BAM20.00 per person.

On a paid tour, 10% of the price on top.

Free walking tours in Sarajevo and Mostar run on tips, and the guides often lived the history they are telling.
